    Not if you can find some mug to buy. And at the moment the banks are stuffed full of QE with few places to put it.

    Beazly is only BBB+ rated. With this bond, you are essentially buying their debt.

    Bond is for a 7 year (!) tie-in.

    Better rates are available for corporate bonds already.

    NB.: If you buy company debt via these bonds, the money you make back depends on the firm involved not going bust and you are not protected by the UK's £85,000 Financial Services Compensation Scheme if the worst happens.

    You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Nomadd again.
